Why is Burgess yacht insurance better?
Published 07 December 2023
At Burgess we believe yacht insurance should fix problems, not create them. Our yacht insurance is better in three important ways.
- Expertise on board: When underwriters are presented with a claim, the strength of the case presented can significantly influence the outcomes. Burgess is unique in its ability to bring to bear an impressive array of in-house expertise. With Burgess you get over 27 in-house marine specialists, including master mariners and naval architects, to champion your claim and advocate with technical authority for fair outcomes, minimising your downtime.
- Rapid response: When you need us most, Burgess ensures that large claims are funded and paid, often within 48 hours, expediting cash flow and repair work. ‘This claims process is unique to Burgess and there is no additional charge for this service,’ says Andrew Pearson, Head of Claims at Burgess Yachting Financial Services (BYFS). ‘It has been crafted to help owners like you to get their yachts back on the water as soon as possible.’
- Seamless settlements: Industry-leading policies and a claims process that prioritises your time on the water, that’s what makes us different. Insuring with Burgess is synonymous with peace of mind. Our policies cover every facet of superyacht ownership, from the hull and machinery to the luxury and lifestyle that come with it. With us, you're not just insuring a yacht; you're ensuring an experience. Relax, we’ve got you covered.
When you need to claim, it’s good to know that that you’re insured with a company that can back your claim all the way, one that pays fast and in full.
